Album: Give It More Time
Intro
I have to give it time
I have to give "
Verse 1
Just a girl with some lofty dreams
Wrote 'em down in 2014
I can still recreate the scene
Curtain down, as they stood to their feet
Pre-Chorus
Wanted the stage, wanted the lights
Wanted to climb to the Hollywood sign
On top of the world in the blink of an eye
Chorus
But I had to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
I had to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Verse 2
New year, same girl, with the same dream
Still singing to the mirror in front of me
Bought a camera downtown real cheap
Meredith took a press shot for me
Pre-Chorus
I whispered a prayer, said to the Lord
I won't make a move 'til you open the door
I whispered a prayer, looked for a sign
Chorus
But I had to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
(Yeah) I had to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Post-Chorus
How do you wait when it's all that you want?
How do you stay when you're ready to run?
How do you know when it's time to move on?
Yeah, I had to give it time
How do you wait when it's all that you want?
How do you stay when you're ready to run?
How do you know when it's time to move on? (Yeah)
Bridge
Looking back, you can see it all
In the moment, it feels like a freefall
God never seems to color in a straight line
Chorus
We have to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
We have to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
We have to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
We have to give it time
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah
Hey, yeah-yeah (Ooh)
Post-Chorus
How do you wait when it's all that you want?
How do you stay when you're ready to run?
How do you know when it's time to move on?
Yeah, we have to give it time
How do you wait when it's all that you want?
How do you stay when you're ready to run?
How do you know when it's time to move on?
We have to give it time
